Hochul: Parts of New York Will Get 2 Feet of Snow, Driving Tips
Parts of New York State are expected to see two feet of snow today.
On Sunday, Gov. Kathy Hochul cautioned travelers across New York state as wintry weather conditions, including heavy snow, high winds, and icing, are expected to create difficult driving conditions in multiple regions until at least Monday night.
Snow, sleet or freezing rain caused slippery roads and limited visibility throughout the day on Sunday in the Hudson Valley and other parts of the state.
Heavy snow is also expected east of Lake Ontario tonight with total accumulations of around two feet in some locations and winds gusting as high as 35 mph through Monday night, according to Hochul. Western New York, North Country, Central New York and Mohawk Valley will primarily be impacted.
"While New Yorkers are no strangers to winter weather, I’m urging everyone in impacted areas to avoid unnecessary travel as we continue to experience a mixed bag of snow, wind and icy conditions," Hochul said. "New York stands ready to support any of our local partners with response operations and our crews will continue working around the clock to keep our roadways as safe as possible.”
Multiple weather warnings, watches and advisories have been issued across the state for heavy snow, high winds, and icing conditions through Monday night. For a complete listing of weather advisories in your area, visit the National Weather Service website.
Hochul shared the following "Winter Travel" tips that she urges all New Yorkers should know:
